do we still keep 15 players? and have the money based on how much you spent on your players in last years draft?

No, big changes are happening.

1. I want to make this a yearly auction league with full new rosters each year. (easier to dump deadbeat owners)

2. I want to lower the number of roster spots. Smaller rosters, better waiver pool. (I'll make the changes and update everyone tonight)

3. You can keep 3 players. But you can only keep players who have been in the major leagues less than 5 years. This makes having prospects on your team fun and valuable at the same time. You get to keep and develop them and still enjoy a few years of thier prosperity if they do in fact bloom. This also prevents the very best players from being kept from year to year or being swapped at the keeper deadline. ie. It prevents keeper deadline trade deals where Pujols would be traded for Lincecum type deals just to have the keeper date reset. So once the player has been in the majors for 5 years, you have to drop them. If you don't have 3 players that qualify on your team then you get extra draft picks at the end of the draft.

4. The waiver priorities each year will be based off how you finished in the league. Champion gets first waiver priority in the next year. Best reward since the drafts would be auctions each year.

5. Free agency will be done using the Free Agent Auction Bid system. Everyone will have limited funds to use on their FA additions.

Don't numbers 4 and 5 sorta contradict each other? lol
